That's a nice idea and all but largely companies that are too ineffective tend to go bust. Like yeah they get away with some stuff, but there is a limit. It's competition that determines that limit. The more competition in an industry the more efficient you have to be and the less returns the owners will get. It's one of the better aspects of capitalism - for the most part. It could lead to companies cutting costs that cause issues down the road.

Oh absolutely. But the bigger or more monopolistic the company, the higher the limit. Some can get away with running in circles for years while people play career ladder games in successive restructurings.
